Anyone have (or even seen) a '74-'75 dash with oil, temp and alternator gauges?

Pretty sure my factory manual and maybe even owner's manual (Haven't looked at them in a while.) shows full gauges as an available option on 1974 C Body gauge clusters.
My Sport Suburban only has a speedo and fuel gauge and I hate to hang one of those cheapo clusters under the dash.
If anyone has parted a full gauge cluster out and for sale please give me a heads up!
Also... Anyone know of any C Body specific salvage yards? I found one about fifteen years ago and can't remember where it was at... Nebraska?
Thanks!
 
What you're looking for is rarer than a zero mile Hemi Cuda stowed away in a barn.
I have never seen one although I've been looking for years and I am not aware any other of the members here who own a Formal saying so either.
If I recall correctly, it was a Fury (74)/Gran Fury (75) cop car option. Maybe Monaco/Royal Monaco, too. I don't know.
If you do come across a car with one, it might have the rare Formal cop car bucket seats also.
Finally, as far as finding a 74+ C-body cop car goes, the Blues mobile guys literally already have turned over almost every rock.
 
Here's some pics of what you're looking for...the super elusive 74-77 Dodge/ Plymouth combined oil pressure / temp gauge that went in the place of the clock.

No I don't have one. I saw them on Police cars in the wrecking yards back in the day...but I never thought to pull and save them.

WOW! Thanks guys. Funny thing is.... I'm 50 miles from Chicago and there are probably two Bluesmobiles per 1,000 capita..
A body shop down the road has a '75 Monaco done up as a Bluesmobile and the old boy told me a long time ago that it was a South Bend PD car. I'll have to stop in next week and eyeball his dashboard. He usually only yells at people peeking into cars around there. Usually. A few cases of beer might nab it if I offer a civilian donor part which I already have.
Those gauges made a lot more sense than a clock that usually lasted eight months.
 
Part number 3592655. Just a little more info: The wiring for the installation of the Oil/temp gauge package is located just above the cluster from what I remember up to '76 on P and D. From '77 onward no wiring exists for the package. The printed circuit board on the cluster was changed in '77 as well.

Thanks War Wagon!
I might Google that number for twenty years but it doesn't hurt to try to hit the lottery!
